Helpful Expert Reply:

The Draw Tite hitch part # DR47FR that fits your 2020 Ford Escape does not include trailer wiring but you can easily add that on with the part # TE54FR for a fit that is easy and overall very reliable! Not everyone who installs a trailer hitch plans to tow a trailer which is why the wiring wasn't included. Some people only want to carry a bike rack or cargo carrier.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
